Custom-made chains, also known as made-to-order chain types are reduced and used for a special application and can be in different forms based on what type of application they’re going to be used in. They are a very important component of various systems in different industries such as manufacturing, construction and transportation. These chains are used to lift, convey and secure things in these industries.
Custom-made chains are made from high-strength chains through a process of custom configuration and manufacture, allowing for the exact length, weight, and material to be met. This ensures that the chain will have the ideal strength to hold heavy loads and functions efficiently as it helps you complete your project without any interruptions or delays.
There are several different types of custom-manufactured roller chains that can be manufactured, including roller chains, conveyor chains, and link chains. Since they are produced upon order, each chain can be different from one another. Consequently, their original materials can vary from stainless steel to plastic.
The process of making a custom-made chain
When you order a custom chain from a manufacturer, the process begins with design. The customer works with the company to determine the specific requirements for the chain. If you want the exact chain to be produced, you need to be specific about the size, materials, and other special features in your order. If you need additional properties, it would be wise that you also consider the corrosion resistance or lubrication needs of the chain.
Seeing a prototype before the mass production is good for both manufacturer and you since there might be things that you deem not appropriate for your application. Make sure that you test the prototype for strength, durability and any other property that you want your chain to have.
After you and the manufacturer make sure that everything is in its right place, they will begin the actual production. This typically involves using specialized equipment and machinery to cut, bend, and form the raw materials into the final chain product. How long the production will take highly depends on the material and the type of chain. Production phase goes hand in hand with the testing as the final product needs to meet all the safety requirements. This can be achieved by putting the product up for duration test and other types of testing depending on what is considered important with the final product.
Why You Should Buy Custom-Made Chains
Made-to-order chains are the premier choice for applications where custom engineering is required. The time between placing and receiving your order can be complex and long, but the end result is exactly what you need in your operations.
Custom-made chains might at times be the only choice depending on how demanding the business is and none of the already set type of chains might work for the continuity of the projects. To ensure the business continuity, custom made chains can be the only solution to a problem. By working closely with the manufacturer and carefully considering all of the necessary factors, customers can ensure that they receive a custom chain that meets their exact needs and performs as expected in their intended application.

Custom roller chains are special chains for non-standard applications in either normal or special environmental conditions. These chains contain heavy duty lube free, corrosion resistant and low and high temperature chains.
Custom made chains are manufactured to the specific requirements of a customer or industry. If your machine needs a durable chains and you can find the one amongs different choices in the market, you might want to consider a custom made chain. Custom made chains are also available for use under extreme conditions such as those found in mining operations.
Custom made chains are manufactured to meet the specific needs of their end users.This means that you will be getting a type of chain that will fullfill exactly your needs. This includes everything from the types of materials used in their manufacturing to the dimensions of each link.
Custom chains are a great choice if your needs are different from what the market offers. As they are made upon order, their shapes and material can vary from one another. The cost of custom conveyor chain types depends on what type of chain you need and how many links it will have.
